Lpgk Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Well I was kinda hoping it would get into the 9.0s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the dust shadow on the back top cover, color breaking creases on the spine and minor edge wear I’d think an 8.5 but you never know. Presents really well. Definitely post the grade!

OuterboroGuy Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 9.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos_in_Canada Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Nice book 9.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agamoto Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) I would say it's a 9.0 Any sniff of restoration on it? I've been screwed over by sellers on ebay twice on this book. Open it up and check the spine, get a high powered blacklight and check it in the dark, look at it at an angle in daylight. Even if does have resto, nice book!

Even if does have resto, nice book! I’ve looked at it every which way with the black light. Seems to be ok. when I bought it, I checked the inside cover, where If there is color touch, it generally bleeds through. Any other tips to check for color touch?

theCapraAegagrus Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 8.5 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Flaws I see include a couple spine ticks, light scuffing or whatever at bottom of spine and that tiny edge tear and ding in the third and fourth pics. 9.0 seems the high end I feel. I don't know that a 9.2-9.4 would be allowed with those two minor flaws on the leading edge of the book. A shame because without them, it has 9.4-9.6 potential.
